Link to Retail Product Removed To kick off SEMA 2018, CarPro Proudly presents a product that combines two of our favorite attributes! In fact the combination of function and beauty made possible by Elixir may leave you asking, “What sorcery is this!?” Certainly Elixir originated from humble...

Holy crap, I`ve never gotten a workout trying to remove residue like I just did. My car is in my garage where it`s probably 80 degrees. Glass was cool to the touch. I applied 3 layers of G1 and let it sit for 15 minutes, per the instructions. I came back with the G2 on the supplied applicator...

both of my cars are a dark grey with metallic flake I`m a bit of a tactical flashlight guy and have some nice LED lights. They don`t seem to help at all, even when held at 45 degrees. I bought a cheap worklight, which doesn`t seem to help. I try it in direct sunlight, which gives the best...

I`m not sure if I`m being paranoid, but I used a couple of new products and wanted to hopefully get some reassurance. Wife just got a brand new car. We`ve had it about 2 weeks and it stays in a garage at home and at work. I foamed it today, washed, then used Iron-X. I saw just a few purple...

My wife just got a new car, and I`m looking to coat the whole car. I previously used McKees` dedicated paint, wheel, and glass coatings. The glass and paint coatings seemed good, but I came across the CQUK kit with Gliss and Reload and want to try it out. My questions: would you use CQUK on...

My wife's car was recently repaired, and the body shop was kind enough to hologram the side of her car for me. I took my GG with HD Uno on an orange pad to it. I'd say I initially had an 80-90% improvement in the holograms and most small swirls that I could see with my flashlight. I was...

VIP Special - $100 Autogeek Gift Certificate for $65

I've seen plenty of people use dilutions on everything from interiors to wheel wells to engines, but what can APC not be used for? Wheels? Stripping wax from paint? What is not advisable to use APC on? What's it not particularly good for? (this is Meg's APC+ if that matters)

Which one do you think is more useful all-around, both for wheels and under the hood? Is the mini one still big enough to be useful for wheel barrels and wheel wells? Of course we'd all ideally have both, but what if you could just have one?

My buddy and I were washing his wife's car today when we noticed that nearly the entire car was covered with these very small white/gray spots. The car was in the body shop not too long ago, though he can't recall if these spots were present before that. I tried claying a portion of the...

Amazon.com: Zwipes 775 Microfiber Replacement Towel - 20-Piece: Automotive Anyone have experience with these?

I am going to use ONR as lube so I just need to buy some more clay. I was looking around Amazon and came across a few options including 200g of Meguiar's professional fine or aggressive for ~$20, 226g of Griot's for $20, and 2 different Easy Clay 200g (2x 100g) kits for $13-14. Anyone have...
